2018 Hyundai Tucson 1.7L Diesel · JR12 JAX

The vehicle presents an exceptionally clean mechanical history, with five consecutive MOT passes recorded since 2021. The most recent inspection on 11 September 2025 at 40,832 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories, indicating a stable and well-maintained state. The absence of any recorded failures or minor defects across the entire history suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent professional care and preventative maintenance. The recorded mileage of 40,832 miles over an eight-year lifespan averages approximately 5,100 miles per annum, which is well below the national average for a vehicle of this type. The progression of mileage is linear and logical, showing no suspicious gaps or signs of long-term storage that might otherwise lead to perished rubber seals, seized brake calipers, or battery degradation. The steady accumulation of roughly 6,000 to 9,000 miles between annual tests confirms the vehicle has remained in regular, light use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. Because the MOT history is entirely free of advisories, prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the components that typically wear out beyond the scope of a standard test. You should verify the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion or inner-face scoring, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from light surface rust due to infrequent heavy braking. Check the tyre sidewalls for cracking or age-related hardening and confirm the service history for fluid changes, specifically the brake fluid and engine oil, which are critical for long-term reliability. Given the clean test record, this Tucson appears to be a well-preserved example, though a thorough check of the undercarriage for any early signs of surface oxidation remains a prudent step for any used purchase.
